If you just go for a paddle than you can stop thinking about wanting to go for a paddle.

2014: Post 40 – Bell Island, the other way...

Today the weather was favorable for a paddle around Bell Island. I've paddled around Bell Island before, but only counter-clockwise, so I was pleased when Tony suggested we paddle it in a clockwise direction. We met at the slipway in St. Philips, crossed to Dominion Pier, paddled around the island and back to Dominion Pier, then back to the slipway.Some of my pics to share...

Safe and sound at the slipway

By going clockwise around the island today things had a different perspective... it provided the feeling that I have not done this paddle before...Thanks to Terry, Brian, and Tony for sharing the day.
